2. Max is swimming across a river that is 42.6 m wide. He can swim at 1.6 m/s and heads 20° to the right of the
vertical. There is a current pushing him more to the right and it has a speed of 0.30 m/s. Determine the time it
takes him to cross the river and find out how far downstream he ends up. Draw the diagram.
